Rich and gooey, these Fudgy Flourless Brownies are a delicious weekend treat. These bite-sized brownies are so soft you won’t believe there is no flour in them. The perfect gluten free brownie, this recipe can also be easily made dairy free – just use vegan chocolate chips!
These brownies are so simple (kids will love to help!) and made with ingredients you probably already have at home. I used peanut butter but you can use any nut butter of your choice. Just opt for a smooth, natural version. The batter is supposed to be quite thick, so make sure to spread it throughout the baking tin so it cooks evenly.
The key with these brownies is to not overcook them! When you take them out of the oven, they should be a little underdone as they will continue to cook when they sit in the tray. Be patient – make sure you allow them to cool fully when placed on a rack. Don’t try to cut them right away as tempting as it might be, as they can lose their shape!
The portions for these Fudgy Flourless Brownies are quite small as they are rich. Feel free to cut them a bit bigger if you prefer. The small portions also make them a nice treat for kids, particularly for any that have issues consuming wheat and can’t enjoy regular brownies!
Enjoy after dinner for a small sweet treat with a cup of my favourite caffeine free drink – The Best Rooibos Latte. Store them in a glass container for 1-2 days or about 3 days in the fridge.
Ayurveda Perspective on Fudgy Flourless Brownies
Dense, oily and heavy, these brownies are a grounding treat for Vata types. The sweet and salty tastes are also comforting when you’re feeling stressed or frazzled.
Too many of these brownies won’t be good for Kaphas as they are quite rich, but adding some chilli flakes and having them with a cup of fresh ginger tea can help lighten the load on digestion.
Pitta types should avoid peanut butter and opt for either almond or cashew butter instead.
